    nobody is talking about MSU right now, but they are the real deal.

    Anyone who backs IU on the road deserves to lose money... not saying MSU is a lock but if you have been watching B10 ball you have to be insane to go with the road team in a game like this... Izzo is going to shit on Crean

    IU still overrated and I can't wait until tourney time going to be easy money they don't win away from Bloomington in big games

    TheGreek shows MSU at -2 (-105) & Indiana is +2 (-115). I like MSU's odds at home though. They fed off the energy at home against Michigan last week, they handled business at Nebraska, and although Indiana is on a roll too, I see this as the clash of the titans and with the homecourt edge MSU should take it. They only lost by 5 @ Indiana about 3 weeks ago.

    MSU is the sure pick tomorrow boys... Msu only lost by 5 @ IU several weeks ago - but this was without appling (fouled out in under 14mins) and AT Assembly Hall. Believe it or not the Breslin Center is just as tough a place to play as assembly. The place is huge, loud, and the izzone wraps 360 degrees around. Indiana will have oladipo at less than 100% and they struggle on the road. MSU has only seen improvements since then - from appling, nix, Payne & Dawson, with valentine getting more experience too. However IMO Zeller has struggled and dipo is now a little banged up.

    MSU battles a W out.

    Ummm...Michigan's 3 best players I thought were Trey Burke, Glenn Robinson Jr. & Tim Hardaway Jr. and none of them are white, lol. Of course, MSU has a size advantage in general, but you sure you're talking about Michigan? Maybe you're referring to Michigan's sharp shooter Nik Stauskas.

    Indiana more talented.

    MSU better "team" and better coach by a mile.

    This has no play written all over it. If IU brings its A game (like at OSU), MSU won't be able to keep up. Hard to know when/if that happens, though.

    I am a Badgers fan but I admire this Spartans team greatly. They are gutsy, tough and deep. However I see some potential problems for them tomorrow dealing with Oladipo and Zeller. I think this is a game where we are going to see alot of points put up, and lot of fouls. Looking forward to seeing the total.....

    haha what? yeah Michigan is mostly african american. 2 of Indiana's best players Zeller and Haws are caucasion.

    not that it makes a difference. But "if" Michigan State beats Indiana then maybe they should be ranked #1.

    I'm taking Michigan state laying the points. They are too good a team and Izzo is the better coach. MSU always seems to be playing their best basketball leading up to the tournament time. Additionally, Oladipo tweaked his ankle this weekend. While he still plays, I don't think he will be 100%. Plus I doubt Sheehey will put up 22 again. Homecourt, Izzo, Oladipo not 100%, taking MSU and points.

    I like MSU but I am homer and probably will just pass or play 1st half over. Crazy Indiana hasn't won in East Lansing since 1991. I know that has nothing to do with tonights outcome necessarily, but* still a crazy streak though

    Great game. Thought before tip it'd be stupid to play a side very big in this one, and still feel that way.

    Tough one broadway. I lost as well. It was always gonna be a tight game too bad they couldn't pull it out.

    No coin what happened to msu down the stretch? They had the far superior coach.

    I thought he did everything. If Indiana misses free throws it's probably Crean's fault just like it was Calipari's fault when Memphis missed all those foul shots.

    My point is that in the end it comes down to talent.

    If it was just about "talent," you'd see Kansas, Duke, Syracuse, North Carolina, etc. in the Final Four year after year.

    College basketball is about coaching talent -- not just having talent.

    No you wouldn't because it's a one and done deal. So when it comes down to the tourney, one of the best teams usually wins but not always.

    I'm not even necessarily talking about the tournament. I'm talking about the overall scope of games.

    ...btw other than UConn's insane run a couple years ago, the tourney has a pretty damn good record when it comes to the best or at the very least one of the best teams winning.
